Someone sent them over, “You have to go talk to Jana, she got married in Grand Lake, Colorado too!” The world aligned and […]

Sara & Kelly | Beloved at Loose Park

I love photographing couples at places that mean something to them. Places where they spend their time or where they grew up. For Kelly & Sara, they loved being outdoors at Loose Park with their puppies, it’s the neighborhood Sara grew up in, and they love this park! (As we all do right)? One of the […]

Then comes a baby… Melissa and Kory + 1

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a puppy, (why has this not been added in the song yet) then comes a baby in a baby carriage. One of my favorite couples. I’ve seen their story and their family grow from the beginning, and that’s one of my FAVORITE things about my job. To look […]

Nicki & Brandon | Kauffman Gardens

It doesn’t get more spring like than a walk through the freshness of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Memorial Garden in Kansas City. It sits right at the front of the Nelson Atkins Museum and is surrounded with Kansas City’s finest. With rows of perfect floral design, and every color of flower and green you can imagine. […]

Grandpas truck | KC Beloved

Ashley & Jordan seriously lucked out with one of those days in the fall that everyone wants their Beloved session or wedding to fall on. The colors were so ripe and the weather was my favorite, 70’s. We didn’t just stylize a shoot.. the truck was from grandpa, and Jordan and his family spent time […]

Balloon fights with Amy & Mark + beloved

Amy and her continuous adorable laughter + Mark with his “kindergarten grin” as Amy would say it. These two have nothing less than pure fun in their relationship. I say Amy wins at their balloon fight. Just because she has longer hair and it shows more static means very little in terms of who conquers […]
